These are cute little turkeys made out of oreo cookies and candy pieces. They are even easy enough for young children to help make. Gobble! Gobble!

1 Turkey (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 2 Oreo Double Stuff cookies
  • 1 malted milk balls (like a whopper)
  • 4-6 candy corn
  • icing (optional)

Directions

  1. 1
    Take 1 oreo apart. This will be the base.
  2. 2
    Place the whole oreo on its side on the base, so that it sticks to white of the oreo.
  3. 3
    In front of the oreo on its side, place a malted-milk ball for the turkeys head.
  4. 4
    Place candy corn, points down, in between the oreo cookie that is standing on it's side.
  5. 5
    Use icing for eyes and waddle if you want.

When we arrived for Thanksgiving our 4 yr old grandson proudly led us to the table to show us the turkeys he made for each place setting. His mom also made 25 turkeys for daycare with his help. It is a very kid friendly recipe & he was thrilled with the results. As you can see in my photo she added a small Reese's cup for the body. I was delighted to see your recipe printed out & you a part of our holiday. Thank you!

    I have to give you 5 stars for cuteness alone! Too bad I didn't see these for the class project for my daughters at thanksgiving time. I am printing it out to pass on to their teachers for next year.

    I teach a kids "cooking" class on Wednesday nights and I am always on the lookout for fun and easy recipes and this one caught my eye last year but our Thanksgiving is in October and I did not have the chance to use this recipe last year. I need recipes that are sort of simple because my youngest group is grade one and two but it still have to be fun for my oldest group too, who are grades five and six. This was fun for the kids (grades 5&6) last week. I made a batch of Sugar Cookie Icing and tinted some black and some white and put in ziplocs with the end cut off so they could add eyes and "glue" on licorice laces on the side of the head. In total over three weeks my three classes will have made about 200 oreo turkeys!! Thanks Cheryl

    Fun recipe. Did these at my son's school (3rd grade) and they were a huge hit. We are going to make these again on Thanksgiving with the kids. Have extras since some of the cookies inevetably will break. I also made white icing for eyes and cut Twizzlers in small pieces for the gobbler. Very cute treat!
